Our Ethos
Realfoods is built around the idea that everyone can positively impact their environment and health & wellbeing with the smallest of changes. As business and volunteer program, we are dedicated to educating students, staff and our customers on how this can be achieved.
Some examples of how we do this are:
- Sharing knowledge on sustainable, ethically, locally sourced food options with mindfulness of where food comes from and what’s in it.
- Limiting waste and practising responsible waste management.
- Only using bio degradable and compostable packing and avoiding single use plastics. Encouraging the use of reusable packaging eg. offering discounts for keepcups.
- Making ethical/sustainable eating appeal to a broader audience, proving it can still be tasty, balanced and nutritious.
- Collaborating with students and staff on campus with shared objectives.
- Teaching life skills and promoting healthy eating.
- Our cafes provide real world hospitality and retail training opportunities for our student volunteers.
Volunteer with Realfoods
Our volunteers are the backbone of what we do and if you’re looking for a new challenge, to pick up some life skills and professional experience while making new friends, sign up to be Realfoods volunteer! You don’t need any experience, we’ll give you all the training you need. Shifts are available at both our City and Bundoora stores. We even have specific kitchen skills opportunities if you’re more interested in learning more about commercial food preparation.
